xMC new skin XBMC
#1
When SJ presented the Apple iTV in the Macworld 2007, many users of the XBMC passed for the head to give him to this fantastic application a similar loock.

For what could read in the forum, there appeared a project that the skin xTV has given as fruit.

Parallel I also initiate a project to give him to the XBMC a loock similar to the iTV, whose result is the skin xMC that I they present later. Both the xMC and the xTV are similar since they depart from the same base, but every author has given him his personal interpretation on having adapted it to the characteristics of the XBM.

Summary of functionalities (in spanish and not finish): http://personales.ya.com/joanreig/xMC/Readme.pdf

I hope that they like. They can report mistakes and suggestions in this forum.

Thank you

I love it! You did a really great job on this skin. One thing I noticed is that there is no shutdown menu when you click in the left thumbstick. I know there is one on the home screen but there should also be one when you click the left thumbstick. You also should consider adding this skin and your HDeeTV II skin to the XBMC Skinning Project SVN. This way people could grab updates as soon as you commit them and it would be easier for you to make updates.
Here are some screenshots:

That may have just been a typo, but if not...left thumbstick does screenshots, not the shutdown menu....Shutdown menu is right thumbstick

I am in the USA so I don't know if the PAL is a problem.

I like this skin very much.
Leonardo, I think this skin or HDeeTV must be the standard skin for XBMC.

What I like most about xMC is the "Music playlist" showing instead of the "Visualisation" when playing music.

Is this the new default? When it isn't it must be so.

leonardo,

First, I got to say I love this skin. The new media views (list & wrap) are way cool. I also really like your use of the Now Playing screen. Almost no one else uses it.

But, I'm having a problem that is almost keeping me from using it. Every time I go into the MOVIES screen the view is defaulted to LIBRARY View. But, I really don't like the library view for my videos. I spend a lot of time keeping my stuff organized so I don't really need it.

It doesn't seem to matter how many times I switch to FOLDERS, the next time I go back to MOVIES, its back to using the library.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for a really cool skin!

Edit the home.xml file (directory PAL) and replace
<onclick>XBMC.ActivateWindow(MyVideoLibrary)</onclick>
by
<onclick>XBMC.ActivateWindow(MyVideos)</onclick>

No this isn't the new default. It is a new functionality of this skin
